"Love the Children" After listening to 15 of my fellow PCT speak today, from the youth sector, I realized that if I can just love the children here, for the next two years, than I will have had a successful PC experience.
I have been so in awe of our life the past 3 weeks that I haven't been able to process it. So I will start here. The beginning. First of all, I am so amazed at Yvonne's ability to work with children, young adults in her case. She is working with 15 or so students in a summer camp; just getting her feet under her. She volunteered to put off a play with them for Emancipation Day. She only had 2 days to pull it off and she did in fine fashion. I will post some pictures soon.
We have returned to Kingston for another week of training. We are considered trainees until August 28th when we are sworn in at the US Embassy. It is a bit of a trial. Learning Patwa, meeting the endless requirements related to safety and security, etc. It is good and feels right as we work our way to that momentous day.
Thursday we return to the west, our home for the next two years. Negril is feeling comfortable. I am getting my arms around living in a tourist town. We have a job to do there. I realize that now. I am learning so much about just letting all my expectations go and just running with what we have been blessed with.
I will love the children here in Jamaica.
Peace and love

B&Y, good to hear there's love in the air. You're so far ahead in this game!
We're wasting time in SD, going to the beach, looking at property, wondering if we should buy a shack in Hondo & forget this place.
